Evaluation summary
6 defects · 123/123 checkpoints recorded
This report records what the inspector observed and entered during the inspection, by visual and functional checks without dismantling the vehicle. It is not a guarantee of future condition. Its star rating follows the method of MS 2728:2023 as applied by Autospecter, and is not an official certification.
Terms and conditions
- What this report is
A record of the car's condition as our inspector found it on the day, at the place it was inspected, within the checks of the package you chose. Checks outside the package are marked Not in package.
- A used car is a used car
Wear, past repairs and faults that are hidden or come and go are normal in a used car. We report what could be seen or tested; a clean report does not mean the car has none.
- How we inspect
By looking, listening and operating, without taking anything apart. We do not remove panels, trim or covers unless the report says so. The underbody is checked only in Used Plus, with the car raised on a jack, ramps or a hoist.
- On the day only
A car changes after it is inspected. Anything that appears or worsens later is outside this report.
- Engine, OBD and test drive
These record what could be observed: trouble codes as the scanner read them on the day, and how the car behaved on a short drive, which needs the seller's consent. They do not guarantee the engine, gearbox, electrics or suspension.
- Accident, flood and mileage
We report the signs we can see. Finding none is not proof that the car was never in an accident or a flood, or that the mileage is genuine. We do not check official records unless JomCheck is part of your package.
- What we cannot see
Faults that are internal, intermittent, out of reach or temporarily fixed may not show at the time of inspection.
- Photos, pins and notes
They show where and what we found. A photo may not show the full extent of a defect, and we do not quote repair costs.
- The star rating
Used Plus reports carry a star rating worked out by Autospecter following the method of MS 2728:2023. It describes the car's condition on the day, from the rated checks only; checks marked Not tested or Not on car are left out. It is not a certification, a valuation or a guarantee.
- Your decision
The verdict is our opinion. Whether you buy, negotiate or walk away is your decision alone, and we are not a party to the sale.
- Not a warranty or certificate
This report is not a warranty or insurance, a Puspakom inspection, a roadworthiness certificate, a valuation or an ownership check.
- Our liability
Our liability for an inspection is limited to the fee paid for it, as far as Malaysian law allows. Booking an inspection or using this report means you accept these terms and our Terms of Service on our website.

Each rated check is graded OK, Minor or Major. A section's marks are its checks' grades (worth 100 %, 50 % and 10 %) shared over its checks, times the section's weight. When a body or chassis repair is found, body, wheels and underbody use 10 %, −50 % and −100 % instead. An OBD group scores in full with no code and nothing with one. The sections add up to the total, and the total gives the stars.
